Best Eye Primer

Hi I want to start using an eye primer. I was looking at Urban Decay primer potion or Bare Minerals prime time eyelid primer. Which one of these would you guys recommend? If not these which one? Thanks

Re: Best Eye Primer

Another thing to consider is cost. I think Urban Decay is more cost effective than Bare Minerals. They both work on my eye lids, but UD comes in a larger size and is only a few dollars more expensive, so I've been using UD.

Re: Best Eye Primer

I have tried both the Urban Decay Primer Potion and the Bare Minerals Prime Time and Urband Decays is by far the better of the 2. I have hooded, oily lids and when I do not wear eye primer, my shadow creases after about 30 mins. Using bare minerals prime time i have bad creasing after a couple of hours. Using Urban Decays Primer potion, my eyeshadow stays in place all day with no creasing at all.

If you are close to a Sephora, I would get a sample of Urban Decays Primer Potion, Too Faced Shadow Insurance and NARS Smudge Proof Eye Shadow Base.

Honestly the best eye primer I have ever used is by Milani. It is $6.99 for a tube & keeps my eye makeup in place for my 10 hour work day. You can get it at Walgreens & it comes in a silver tube. I have tried other eye primers & this is the one I keep buying. Sorry Sephora! I love my fancy makeup, but the Milani eye primer is one of the only beauty items I get at a drug store.

Re: Best Eye Primer

It depends on what kind of lids you have. If you have oily lids, I've heard really good things about Too Faced Shadow Insurance and Nars. If you have normal lids, I agree with ellevee09 that Urban Decay's Original Primer Potion would be a good one to try out.

Re: Best Eye Primer

Hi! some of my top primers that I use are primer potions by urban decay. The original and Eden I use often. Also, I use NYX "milk" when I want my eyeshadow to really pop it's color. It's a really good base for those bright colors. I also use MAC paint pots in painterly and soft ochre. Hope this helps Hun!
